The smoke bomb Alsim threw was not to block the Japanese army's view.
If the Japanese army could communicate more with those German troops who had fought against the Leader Army and the Leader Division, the predecessor of the Leader Army.
Then you will definitely know how terrifying it is to encounter the leader's infantry on the battlefield and throw smoke bombs at your own feet.
The smoke indicator mine thrown by Alsim had an effect, and fire support led by the division commander Comrade Kulbalov responded immediately.
The three IS7s drove the heavy but fast-rotating turrets, quickly pointed the huge 130mm main gun at the target, and fired three 130mm full-caliber high-explosive grenades with less than 3 seconds of continuous fire.
"The Russians are about to charge! Prepare to attack, attack!"
On the other hand, at the same time, the Japanese army had some misunderstandings about the function of the smoke bomb under their feet.
The panicked Japanese army mistakenly believed that this was a precursor to the Russians' imminent infantry charge. They believed that the enemy was throwing smoke grenades to obscure their vision and block firepower so that they could launch an attack.
Based on wrong judgment, the Japanese army eventually took wrong actions.
A group of Japanese soldiers not only refused to retreat under the smoke shroud, but also drew their swords out of their scabbards at the command of the leading captain, put their bayonets on the heads of their 38-type caps and 99-type rifles, and put on a desperate posture.
They have to fight to the death with the Russian infantry who are about to rush into the smoke.
Three rounds of 130 mm high-explosive grenades hit the Japanese trenches and exploded almost at the same time. One of them even penetrated the edge of the trench soil without missing a beat, poured into the trench and detonated.
The heads of the surviving Japanese soldiers were still buzzing, and their bodies were as soft as a puddle of mud with bones removed. They could not even stand firm, so they had to hold on to the trench wall and rely on the rifles with bayonets in their hands.
The crutches supported the body, and it was in such a bad situation that a more terrifying nightmare came.
The bombardment power of the IS7 main gun, which is equivalent to the bombardment power of a destroyer naval gun, is absolutely fierce, and is far more powerful than the 122 Heirloom of the Red Army's heavy tank force.
Plop——
Looking at the Japanese captain who was speechless and kept mumbling, he covered his neck and fell to the ground in pain. He would lose consciousness and die here in ten seconds at most.
When the trenches were destroyed and flesh and blood was stripped away, the Russian infantry could not be brought down by the sharp blade. Instead, the large number of our own soldiers who were waiting for bayonets were conquered by the Russian heavy artillery.
Boom——
"Fire bayonets!!!"
"clear!"
The huge explosion shock wave instantly blew away the directive smoke that had just spread, and what could be seen was a large number of Japanese soldiers' broken limbs, broken arms, and pieces of flesh and blood being lifted into the air.
The miscalculated Japanese army finally realized what was going on, but they could not wait for a chance to recover.
Da da da da——
A large number of Japanese troops with bayonets pointed out and ready for hand-to-hand combat were ready to go. In order to ensure that their combat effectiveness was not affected as much as possible, they even took out a gas mask from the canvas bag they carried and put it on their heads.
Get ready to start drying.
Instead, they took full advantage of the combat engineers' ability to carry various types of explosives with them, displayed more than a dozen grenades at the same time, and personally led the soldiers to throw them in the direction of the Japanese gunshots from the opposite side.
The sound of the gunfire sounded quite rapid, and the continuous sound of multiple gunshots fired at the same time was like the non-stop crackling of a high-speed typewriter.
Rumble——
He called to more infantrymen behind him who came to support him and quickly entered the fighting position, fixed his bayonet and prepared to face the enemy in hand-to-hand combat.
He then turned his guns around, personally led the team, and re-entered the frontal battlefield offensive, continuing to pursue and destroy the few remaining bunkers of the Japanese army with direct fire.
A wave of grenades covered the area, followed by a charge. The machine gunner who received Alsim's order was the first to step out. He held the RPD light machine gun in his arms and fired directly from the waist without aiming at the shoulder. He charged and hit all the way forward.
.
The Japanese major who stood in front of him led another group of Japanese soldiers and refused to retreat. He waved his command knife desperately and asked the soldiers to fight to the end at the top of his lungs.
Poof——
"That's enough. No need for additional fire support. Our people have already rushed forward to avoid accidental damage from artillery fire."
Alsim, who was still bleeding from the tip of the knife, swung his backhand, held the AK upright again, raised his left hand and swung forward, leading the soldiers following him straight away.
What surprised Alsim was that the firepower of this group of Japanese troops who suddenly came up to support was obviously different from other Japanese troops.
The sound of continuous fire from Kalashnikov's power suddenly started, and the Japanese soldier who was hit by the 7.62 intermediate bullet with blood spurting out of his chest twitched and fell to the ground.
However, what broke through the smoke was not the huge amount of Russian infantry as expected, but Russian heavy artillery shells larger than the head.
With his mouth half-opened and before he could even finish his words, Alsim sped up and jumped into the trench. With great inertia, he straightened up the bayonet of the AK gun and cut off the Japanese captain's neck with a horizontal stroke.
.
The final result of this was that the density of Japanese troops in the smoke-shrouded area increased instead of decreasing.
"Quick! Get into position and prepare for battle! Attack, attack!!!"
"Heh-gu-gu-he-gu-"
The Japanese captain who was so busy was even a little happy, thinking that he had been looking forward to the opportunity of hand-to-hand combat that the Imperial warriors were best at. They must make these Russian guys who don't know the heights of heaven and earth bow down before the sharp blade of the Imperial warriors.
.
"Russians, Russians are coming! Meet the enemy! Meet -"
"receive!"
He issued an order to the other two vehicles that were providing fire support at the same time. Seeing Alsim personally leading the team into the smoke, Kulbalov ordered to stop.
But compared to the sound of crooked handles and Type 92 gunfire that Alsim was already familiar with, the sound of this firing was obviously different. It was crisper and the rate of fire was faster and more intensive.
Compared with the German MG42, which fires so fast that the specific sound of the gunshot is heard like a tearing machine, there is obviously still a gap.
"Uhhhhh!!!"
Boom boom boom boom——
With his eyes wide open, he didn't even see who killed him until he died, but he saw the Japanese captain beside him who witnessed this scene immediately screamed in surprise.
"Be careful! The enemy has many automatic weapons, probably submachine guns. Prepare grenades! The machine gunners are ready to break through!"
"Don't let those Russians come at you! Fire to stop them! Fire quickly!"
As soon as the Russians rush over, the sharp blades of the Imperial Warriors will immediately burst out of the smoke, causing these Russians to splatter with blood, which shows how powerful they are.
The gunfire of a single bolt-action rifle was greatly reduced, and was replaced by a sudden increase in intensive automatic firepower.
Combat engineers themselves are heavy infantry units that rely on firepower. Alsim, who is very aware of the lethality efficiency of automatic firepower, does not intend to charge head-on.
There is no doubt that the RPD's firepower is sustainable with a bullet chain containing 100 rounds of bullets. The bullets in the trenches screamed, and the Japanese troops who did not dare to show their heads were directly suppressed when the barrage came.
Taking this opportunity to lead the team in person, Alsim followed closely and was not idle either.
The machine gunner charged forward to clear the way, and Alsim led the remaining soldiers to follow behind. At the same time, he continued to throw various explosives for "human bombing", and this time it was not just grenades.
I’m going to add an update today, brothers. I’ve finished my work at home, so the second update will have more words. I’ll speed up the code and release the first update for everyone to read first.
